Unsigned (Independant) Solo Artiste. Birmingham UK. Roots Rock Reggae/Jazz/experimental fuses. Studio/Live performance (Clubs, Festivals, Theatre, Concerts, etc) with tons of Lead, Guest & Session vocal experience... smile! "My background in music has been wonderfully coloured with a great variety of professional artistes that i've had the amazing pleasure of working with including Steel Pulse, Pato Banton, Dean Frazer, Abijah (JA), Ranking Roger, Willie Stewart of 'Third World', Eddy Grant, Peter Hunnigale, Nerious Joseph, Vivian Jones, Basil Gabbidon, Sylvia Tella, Toyin Adekole, Peter Spence, Jeremiah, Skibu, Lytie, Shaz Akira, Andy Hamilton & The Bluenotes, Andy Gayle (saxophonist), Soweto Kinch (Mercury Award saxophonist), James Renford (saxophonist), Konig (guitarist), Amlak Tafari (Bass Player) amongst many other's too many to mention ...
A petit entertainer with a lot of musical passion and energy ... laughter ... inspiration ... fun ... love ... & reality. Many say "A sexy, charismatic performer with a huge sultry voice"! Either way ... "she's on a mission to create, play & deliver great music to the masses of this world" ... :0)

Reggae/Rocksteady/Jazz/Blues/Hip Hop/R&B/Soul/Rock/Dub/Indie and experimental ideas (Yaz's foundation is Roots Rock Reggae/Jazz & her favourite music flava's are Reggae or Jazz influenced but is very open to working with all styles as long as her voice fits :0)





“ Yaz ALEXANDER “ Testimonies:

Steve “Grizzly” Nisbett ex Steel Pulse drummer says, “Yaz is an energetic and highly talented performer and is one of the best untapped talents in the region”…

Sue Beardsmore from BBC Mailbox says, “Yaz has a stunning voice and a great presence… when she's up and singing - you have to listen…

Martin Blissett, Chairman of Newstyle radio says, “Yaz is an extremely talented artist, I was overwhelmed when I first heard her track ‘This World’, it is without a doubt the best female reggae track I’ve heard over the past couple of years. Yaz definitely has the support of Newstyle Radio.”

Arguably one of the UK's finest roots rock reggae/jazz experimental artists – Yaz Alexander (www.yazalexander.com / www.myspace.com/yazalexander)

One of the most in-demand vocalists on the circuit. A fantastic track record in the industry having served her apprenticeship as a backing/lead vocalist under the stewardship of some of the UK’s best ever reggae recording artists i.e. Steel Pulse, Pato Banton et al.

Yaz is a great solo artist in her own right and has performed at several high profile events both at home as well as Internationally with her most recent performances in Birmingham Alabama bringing invitations to return in 09 to collaborate with some fantastic musician's out there.

Any bill that includes Yaz Alexander will give promoters and audiences much enjoyment and serious value for money. Performing with her 2 backing vocalists ‘Black Pearl’ Yaz is definitely a performer not to be missed!
